What is Star Grading?Star grading is an independent assessment of what guests can expect to find at an accommodation establishment or conference venue. It’s based on the overall quality and takes into account the facilities you’d expect to accompany a particular star grading.

The Star Grading runs from one to five stars, five stars denoting the very best of quality. Grading takes into account the type of accommodation – hotel, guest house, country house, bed & breakfast, backpacker & hostelling, camping & caravan park or conference facilities (Meetings, Exhibitions, or Special Events MESE).
